Street Fighter V Roster Discussion |Thread 2| Deal with it & place your hope for DLC

I don't think it's inherently bad art, just too stylized to the point of looking too crude/simple.

Still could have been much better though.
 
It seems like Balrog and Guile could be the first two DLC characters since a new PS4 ad teases both

Including the silhouette teaser, data mining etc etc

Is it all a coincidence?!
 
Man I really hope so. They're the two I'm looking forward to the most.

I seriously can't wait to see how much Guile will be affected by the V system.
 
That's pretty unfair to the casual base who still bring a lot of money in. Why shouldn't they get something with more effort as well. Almost all conversations have been "why are you even caring about SP it's SF". Like my bad for not being a FGC EVO player.

The casual base would still buy this game regardless, and it won't be the casual base that'll keep this game going; it'd be just like SF4.

This would be a much better example for Guile an Boxer being the first DLC characters.
 
I was expecting Balrog and Guile to be the first two out the door anyway.

They probably have a decent amount of stuff to do in the story between Shadowlaw and Charlie
They're the two most recognizable characters on the DLC list
Balrog makes sense to release first because the currency system is named after him

People just ignore this because they don't want to wait until December 2016 for Alex.

You make it sound like all that money the casual base brings doesn't mean shit.

Yup, with the teaser pic, that comic, and the new ad, these two are looking more and more like the first two out of the gate, which I'm happy about. They bring the most different play styles. I'm thinking the teaser image is going to be the order.

Yeah, casual players drop games within the first month which is why Day 1 DLC is so prevalent. They won't buy DLC for a game they are no longer playing.

And out of the six, Balrog and Guile appeal go casual fans the most. The people who are likely going to buy Alex and Urien are the people who will be playing this game through 2016.
 
Leaked, leaked, yet leaked. These leaks keep growing.

So, the story mode is actually going to have a tutorial? Wow. Capcom actually being helpful to new players. I wonder if they'll actually teach stuff like footsies, zoning, other fundamentals, etc.

But even then most profit for a game is made day 1. Which is where the casual base brings in so much. My whole thing is that group should be getting something more than this. Even just better artwork would go a long way. I don't like the excuse "well it's street fighter and they won't play the game later".
 
Balrog is gonna be really fun in this game. The V system is gonna add a lot to his cohesive playstyle of being able to switch between being a defensive fortress or an offensive juggernaut depending on the player. SFV doesn't have a character like that yet.

They'll probably spice him up too visually. Bruh I'm gonna be rocking the hell out of the shadaloo kings in this game. (+ Fan maybe???)
 
So like if the first two characters are Balrog and Guile, are you still going to be hoping that Alex is next?

Well no. I would want him next but it would seem like the order is being followed. The order would be like it is now.
What i'm saying is it hasn't happened yet.
 
If you're starting with Gule/Balrog, holding Alex (the other American) till last makes sense.

Indeed.
Alex been missing in action for a while and would have been better if moves forward and one of them got moved back. Maybe Guile since Nash is there. Not the same but...
 
Even if Fan lands up looking like another Gen/Lee, his rigging is definitely saying he's got some kind of articulated weapon. Maybe a Kung Fu rope dart?
 
Only if you go by Harada's series lifetime numbers. If we're going by which series is the most popular in recent times (this gen and last) Smash, MK, and SF are on top.
Depends so much on regions as well, and so much at GAF is anecdotal or US-centric. MK is entirely unknown in Japan, and Tekken hasn't broken a million since Tekken 3. Worldwide, I'd be surprised if SF and Smash weren't on top. It'd be interesting to hear from posters in South America and Europe on sales there.
 
Or you never know... Necalli has some Wolverine looking stuff... Fan could be like Omega Red. Although the comparisons with Takeda from MKX would be funny (even though Fan was probably in development before we ever saw that character).
 
That upcoming Comic Cover up there is so weird. Stock SF poses for each character, and Guile is totally getting that boom off at point blank with his arms THAT far back, haha. Someone's about to get c.LP'd out of startup.

Anywho, so many leaks. Fan being something general Tao Pai Pai / Master Asia like would be cool. But I really wish we'd see SF get an older woman as a character one of these days. Old martial artist can come in a wider variety of flavours, y'klnow?

The amount of leaks for this game totally support the idea as to why demos and public access previews are used less and less in the industry. The amount of found content is getting a bit ridiculous. At the same time, if this is all according to plan, a player-manipulating drip feed, it's somewhat genius. This generates more interest and conversation in the enthusiast circles than any Gamespot or IGN article ever would.
 
So much for appealing to new regions , they were on a roll with Rashid and Laura. PSX is going to be bad if their final reveal is some Joke old man character and their idea of Story mode if a bunch of artwork and text.

A different kind of Omega Red!

This game needs a Rufus. And evil Rufus. Birdie ain't cutting it.
